What's the point of following any of these people? Does it actually make you money?

Why's it gotta be about money? Sometimes it's interesting to follow what other people in the field are doing. I used to follow a ton of ML and compiler researchers on Twitter. Was a ton of interesting conversations around 2013-2015.

Few reasons:
1. I've gotten value from these folks on other platforms and mediums
2. I'm interested in what they have to share
3. I hope that starting to populate my following helps to choke out all of the bullshit brand recommendations I'm getting
Reason for sharing: can't imagine I'm the only one.
Not sure what you mean about the money thing. Whether you mean me or another person hypothetically following, I don't see a direct way to make money off of it.
